Love Island's Amy Hart gutted after having to 'bin' favourite Disney-inspired baby name

Love Island star Amy Hart is expecting her first child with boyfriend Sam Rason and the couple are blissfully unaware of whether they are having a baby girl or boy.

Opening up on baby names in a recent interview, Amy admitted she's a huge fan of Disney-inspired names after Molly-Mae Hague named her daughter Bambi and Stacey Solomon called hers Belle.

However, the Love Island star revealed she's been forced to abandon her own Disney-inspired name.

She said: "I love Disney! I love the names Bambi and Belle. I wanted Aurora [from Sleeping Beauty]. Unfortunately, I met a man with the last name Rason – Aurora Rason is too much of a mouthful, so my top name of all time has had to go in the bin."

"We’ve already got a little Mickey Mouse picture in the nursery and Dumbo and 101 Dalmatians baby-grows, so the nursery will be transformed into either a boy or a girl’s Disney paradise. So, I’m 100% here for the Disney names!" Amy, who was 39 weeks at the time the interview went to press, told OK! magazine.

The Love Island star went on to reveal that she and Sam have decided on a boy's name in full but are struggled with a girl's middle name.

"It’s hard because all the men in our family, the names are nice and that’s made the middle name for the boy easy. And then the girl’s middle name, because my nan’s called Doreen, my granny was called Pamela, Sam’s grandma was called Barbara, they don’t match the first name," she added.

Amy revealed she considered naming her baby girl Elizabeth after the Queen, as she and Sam are both royalists, but, ultimately decided against it.

Before meeting Sam the 30-year-old decided to freeze her eggs and went through the procedure four times. She planned to start solo IVF in November 2022 but that all changed when she met Sam and the couple conceived naturally last year.

Amy has explained she plans to get married after the birth of her first child before trying again for a second baby and she hopes to be able to donate her frozen eggs one day.
